It May Have Been Murder.

PROVIDENCE, June 9.-A death occurred this noon in a squalid tenement house which has some of the appearances of murder and for which woman has been arrested and held to answer. Edward Hammill, sixty-fve years old, lived with an eleven year old son at 27 Bendemeer street. He has children in Boston. He hires his rooms of Mrs. Moran, wife of furniture mover, and during the morning quarrelled with her over the pay ment of the rent. At 11:50 he called at the Second precinct police station and asked that an officer be sent to help him settle the mat ter. At 1910 patrol wagon was sent and soon returned, having left matters quiet Ten minutes later report reached the station that Hammill was dead. He had begun transferring his furniture and had an express wagon at the door. He was found on the floor of his room with wound in his head. Mrs. Morgan was placed under arrest She says Hammill fell and struck his head against the stove some furniture. The medical examiner is Investigating the nature of the dead mans wounds

Millions of Railroad Ties.


 Edward E. Aver, of the Chicago club, does the largest business in railroad ties in the United States or Canada. or in fact in the world. His contracts already made will require him to load an average of one hun dred and sixty cars each day for the remain der of this year. Counting each car as av- eraging thirty-four feet long, this would make up train two hundred and fourteen miles in length, and the ties would build a railroad from Niagara Falls to San Francis co. They are cut for the most part in Hi nois, Wisconsin. Michigan. Indiana, Ohio, Missouri, Arkansas, Arizona, Minnesota and Canada and shipped into every State and ter ritory in the Union. They are worth here an average of thirty-eight cents apiece, and counting the entire cut for the next seven months at six million three hundred thou sand, their total value foots up two million three hundred and ninety-four thousand dollars, very respectable sum. A fair per centage of profit on business of this kind would enable the contractor to lose dollar now and again without great regret.

Entertainments.

Hicks and Sawyer's refined colored mins- trels played to crowded house last evening at Bunnells. The company has the reputa- tion of being made up of the best colored minstrels in the country. They are made up from singers, dancers and specialists possessed of native genius. They learned their songs and dances in the cabin, on the plantation and on the levee; therefore, they can give the genuine plantation air to their work, which is the charm of negro minstrel sy. They are all artists, and all play their parts we'll. In addition to their skill on the stage they are finished performers on brass instruments. The street parade given yester- day afternoon was viewed by many. There will be special double matinee at Bunnell's Saturday afternoon at one o'clock.

rhe Carpenters, UneasY at ChIcago.

CHICAGO, June 9.-Secretary Brennock of the Carpenters council, speaking to-day in reference to the assertion that the carpenters would strike if the nine hour working day is enforced by the master carpenters, said: ''The new association of bosses shows no signs of violating it's contract with us. We are honorably bound to observe that agree ment and no strike can occur until the ex- piration of the time stated in it. do not anticipate that Monday will bring any truble, although it is said that some of the bosses will commence to enforce the nine hour sys- tenn then and discharge all the men who re- fuse to accept their terms. Should such a thing occur night will see all the men idle once more. Our contract calls for eight hours and no more. We will stand by that compact like honorable men"

Business Good All Around Except in
 New Haven - Millions of Brick
 Shipped on ont of Town Orders.
 Talking with a prominent business man yesterday he said: The building business is good all around except in New Haven. Here it is dead owing to the carpenters strike The brick manufacturers of North Haven are shipping hundreds of thousands, yes mil lions of brick this season, but not to New Haven. They are being shipped to Bridge port Ansonia, Naugatuck, Seymour, New Canaan, Rye, Mamaroneck, South Norwalk- in short, nearly all the larger towns between here and New York and just north of us. I. L. Stiles is shipping an immense number to Bridgeport fer the new court house there and for an enlargement of the Eaton, Cole 6 Burnham manufaetory; fl. P. Shares is ship ping big orders to Bridgeport and elsewhere; Capt. s. P. Crafts is shipping six hundred thousand to South Norwaik for 8 new manu- factory which is being erected there. Here carpenter work is dull and killed for this season, and many of the men cannot go back to work for the reason that work is dull. As said one of the builders to some of his men whom he was obliged to refuse work: If you will bring back the business which was lost in consequence of the strike we will gladly set you at work again. The Builders associ- ation were a unit in feeling that they had made all the concessions it was in their power to make without going into bankruptcy, and were firm in their determination to yield no further. Having yielded all that the men asked as to hours and wages they felt that the time had come to draw the line.

 PAUL SMITH's, NY, June 9.-The Presi- dent is on his way out of the woods. He rose early this morning and superin tended the packing of the big fish he is to carry to Albany for Dr. Ward. At quarter before ten the party started for this place, arriving after pleasant trip of two hours. The spe- cial car "Maraquita" was awaiting the Presi- dents arrival and Bradley B. Small and c. D. Flagg, superintendent of the Wagner Palace Car company, were on hand to see that the Presidents party lacked no comfort and met with no delay. The President waved farewell to the crowd as the train moved off at 5 o'clock. Moria was reached at 6:25. The Presidents car was surround ed by throng of persons who were anxious to see him and Mrs. Cleveland. As the train moved away the President went out upon the rear platform and with his hat off acknowledged the presence of the interested but bashfully silent assembly. The train left Moria at 6:35. A short stop was made at Brushton, where the President chatted pleasantly with a little cluster of persons who were anxious to know how big fish he had caught and laughingly exchanged good byes with vociferous small boy in red.

YACHM RACE IN A sQUALL The Atlantic Comes In First Forty Six Minutes Ahead of The Galatea.


 NEW YORK, June 9.-Light winds and finally calm made fizzle of the New York Yacht clubs regatta to-day. The boats came home listlessly and many of them did not finish till nearly g o'clock. As there was no time limit, however, a race was made. There were twenty-five starters and the At lantic was the first of the larger boats to cross the line. The start was generally poor one owing to light wind many of the principal yachts being body handicapped. A squall in the lower bay caused considerable excitement and general shortening of sail. The Atlantic stood up stifiy under it and gained ground. Others including the Shambock took in top sails. The Galatea and Oracle were the only single stickers that kept their sails up. A calm succeeded the squall. On the time al lowances the Atlantic, the first home, beat the Galatea 46m 36s.
